Capital One asked office professionals in a wide variety of industries to select which benefits they would most like to have at their company, even if it meant forgoing the rest. And across all generations the top four responses were related to wellness:

Healthy food and beverage options available onsite

Areas for relaxation and socialization

Onsite health center/wellness programs

Quiet, reflective spaces

This didn’t surprise me; after all, in today’s fast-paced work environment, we are all craving ways to fit self-care into our busy lives, whether that’s retreating to a quiet place or hitting a treadmill.

“Our focus on a holistic associate experience, including personal wellbeing, is what drives how we think about the amenities we provide and our workplace design,” said Stefanie Spurlin, Vice President of Workplace Solutions at Capital One. “We want our associates to have a variety of offerings, including healthy choices in our cafeterias to different types of work-settings that support the wellbeing of our associates, so they feel equipped to create the best products and services for our customers.”

But what did surprise me was that many companies are behind the curve—even though cultivating an appealing workplace culture is recognized as an incredibly powerful asset for attracting and retaining employees.

For example, 77 percent of those surveyed said their employer does not offer environmentally friendly programs; 72 percent said they lack quiet, reflective spaces; and 71 percent reported no access to an onsite health center or wellness programs.

Easy Ways for Employers to Fulfill Workplace Wellness

1. Get the healthy snacks already.
When asked to prioritize a single onsite benefit they wanted, healthy food and beverage options was the top response from survey respondents across generations. The great news is that tasty healthy choices can be low cost and easy to provide. So ditch the donuts and offer fruit at meetings; add protein-rich nuts or trail mix to your vending machines; and invite the crew to bring a topping to share to liven up sad desk salads.

2. Add movement to the day.
Smart workspace design can have an important effect on how much your team moves around. Encourage people to take the stairs in a multi-level office or hold standing or walking meetings. I deliberately moved my printer so that I have to get up every time I need to retrieve a printout.

3. Offer a menu of fitness benefits.
Another option if your colleagues are up for it is to find an activity that combines social aspects with fitness. For example, form a team to participate in a local 5K and offer post-work training runs for anyone who’d like to join in. Offer a menu of fitness benefits.

4. Promote wellness with flexible workplace design.
I talk a lot about how offering choices is the best way to appeal to the multigenerational workplace, and I believe this is particularly applicable to wellness. A yoga devotee myself, I know that others love a high-intensity cardio class or prefer to hike. So see if you can eke out a small budget that employees can apply to any fitness activity or equipment they desire. Promote wellness with flexible workplace design.

Open plan offices have been all the rage as a way to promote interaction, but for some people they just don’t work—whether you’re an introvert by nature or just need to concentrate on the spreadsheet in front of you. In fact the Capital One survey found that an overwhelming 85 percent of employees said that flexible workplace design is important. So consider how you might configure your workplace to incorporate both types of spaces that professionals said were important—open areas for socialization along with quiet, reflective spaces.

Wellness Benefits As A Win-Win

While your top goal, of course, is happy employees, focusing on workplace wellness can lead to fewer sick days and less stress. And, the survey found, offering a variety of spaces can boost creativity, too. In fact, nearly 80 percent of employees said that an innovative environment encourages innovation, and 83 percent said that flexible workplace design leads to better ideas.

And those are certainly workplace goals that every generation can agree on.
